18.1 ready?

M8ey

Hey funsters,

 

I am running two XG Firewalls (XG230 and 450) and still on v17.5.10

I have been watching V18 and as these two XGs are in Production and used heavily I have been reluctant to load the V18 until at least MR1 - today I see MR1 but many users rolling back as WAF  / IPS broken and other issues.

What is the general consensus  - should I risk it and load v18.1?

I do a heap of Filtering and many FW rules etc so plenty to break....

    In productive environments (customers, etc.) I generally only update when the version has been out for some time and first feedback is given in the community. Here the first v18-GA is still running. Even in my private lab I went back to SFOS 18.0.0 GA-Build354 because SFOS 18.0.1 MR-1 was running unstable.

    I would wait for an update, but in general you can say that v18 including new features is definitely preferable to v17.x. I had some unpleasant experiences with the 17.x, even lost a customer.

    Update: Other guys seem to have problems with 18.0.1-MR1 too: community.sophos.com/.../v18-mr-1-killing-all-traffic
